One of my favorite type of cookies. Have to have it during the Holiday Season. Delicious and sweet.

​

What you need to make about 45  - 50 cookies

​

3 fresh egg whites

1.5 cups / 300 gr of sugar

4 cups / 400 gr of almond meal / ground almonds

2 tsp of cinnamon

​

Step by step:

​

Beat the egg whites  until they start to turn white. While keep beating pour in the sugar, little by little. Once the egg whites are thick-creamy, set about 6 table spoon of the egg whites aside.

​

Fold in the almond meal and cinnamon powder. Chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes. In the meanwhile line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 300 F / 150 C.

​

Place the dough between 2 sheets of  wax or parchment paper. That way it is easier to roll out. Roll out the dough and cut out your favorite cookie shape. While stars are very common, I also cut out trees, ginger bread man shaped cookies. You can use any kind of shape you want.

​

Place the cookie on a baking sheet and brush with the egg whites. Bake for about 15 minutes. 

​

Enjoy!
